Conspiracy

Jazz Butcher


It would get us started 
It would help us all a lot 
If you'd understand there's a conspiracy in pop 
They work world-wide and they're on TV 
The Jazz B-b-b-butcher Conspiracy 
From Oslo to Rome 
New York to Berlin 
When the Conspiracy knocks somebody always lets us in 
Armed and loaded with philosophy 
To consider the big ones seriously 
In the world of science there's something going on 
It's the egg-potato phenomenon 
So if you don't know the ratio potato to egg 
You'd better shape up now, somebody's pulling your leg 

Oh no! 

Oh, whatcha gonna do when the floor caves in 
And everything turns as ugly as sin? 
You'll be all right, you'll be all right 

Whatcha gonna do when the bus breaks down 
And it's four in the morning in a foreign town? 
You'll be all right, you'll be all right 

There's a pain in your head, there's a hole in the road 
You gotta look at this thing in philosophical mode 
And you'll be all right, you'll be all right 

When circumstance gets you on your back 
You gotta roll, roll, roll over the exit, Jack 
And you'll be all right, yeah, you'll be all right 

Big questions, big questions 
They're bothering you and they're bothering me 
And they even bother people at the BBC 
Big questions, big questions 

Call out the guard! 

Wooh! 

You'll be all right, you'll be all right (x2) 

Whatcha gonna do when the balloon goes up 
And the physical world goes all unreliable? 
You'll be all right, yeah, you'll be all right 

Human life and metaphysical death 
Chemistry sets can make an awful lot of mess 
But you'll be all right, you'll be all right 

Eggs and spuds on a scientist's bench 
Channel 4 movie, terrible stench 
You'll be all right, you'll be all right 

You get all your assumptions upside down 
Well welcome home, you're on the wrong side of town 
But you'll be all right, you'll be all right 

Big questions, big questions 
Aristotle, Hume, and old Plato, 
You've gotta see those suckers go, go, go 
Big questions, big questions 

You'll be all right 
Chop! Chop! Busy! Busy! Work! Work! Bang! Bang! 
You'll be all right, you'll be all right (x2) 

Big questions, big questions 
Whatcha gonna do when the house falls down 
And you feel about as snappy as the late George Brown? 
Big questions, big questions 

You'll be all right, you'll be all right (x2) 

Here's some advice, make an appointment, today 

You'll be all right, you'll be all right 
Yeah, get your secretary to pick up the phone 
And make an appointment today 
You'll be all right, you'll be all right 

It's a brand new thing, it goes in the fridge 
It's a brand new thing and it goes like this 

You'll be all right, you'll be all right 
Yeah, and you'll be all right (repeat to fade)
